Karakal BX 130 Gel

1 Comment

In this week’s league match I spotted one of the other players, Kelsey Engman, using the Karakal BX 130. I didn’t get a chance to hit with it but at 130 grams it’s pretty light, and it’s supposed to be slightly head heavy.

And here’s a picture I dug up of Kelsey and her Karakal. She’s talking to David Hughes, my doubles partner from back in NYC. Small world.

    Excellent racket, played with it for years. Light and powerful. Due to the fanned stringing pattern, the stringbed is quite lively. Thin and somewhat flexible frame.

    Despite it was labelled as Karakal’s “best-selling racket ever”, it’s a pity that it is no longer in production…
